Parameterized class with typedef variables

UVM
1

Hello,

How can I parameterize my uvm class with typedef variables? I’m doing this, but it gives syntax error.

my monitor:

typedef enum { SRC, DST ) kind_e;

class my_monitor#( type kind=kind_e ) extends uvm_monitor;

 `uvm_component_param_utils_begin( my_monitor#( kind ) )
 ....

my_env:

class my_env extends uvm_env;

 my_monitor monitor;

 function void build_phase(uvm_phase phase);
    super.build_phase(phase);
    monitor = my_monitor#( SRC )::type_id::create( "monitor", this );
    ....

Hi,

There are 2 parts to answer your question.

  1. When you mention
type kind=kind_e

, it is the default value if someone does not say what datatype my_monitor the user wants.
2.

monitor = my_monitor#( SRC )::type_id::create( "monitor", this );

means we want the monitor to work with the datatype called SRC.

In this case, the datatype called SRC si not defined, hence the error.
